The coincidences were amazing. Questioned about being a fake and next day his best friend dies. Hiding his face as he pretend cries to someone he conned. Crying with no tears to the camera. Sweating buckets when questioned. Then suddenly has to leave? He got caught and was running as fast as possible.
When Ruan asked for the group to meet him on deck for a group meeting. Captain Sandy said she wanted to come as well. When she was there, she asked each of the crew (first Ruan, of course) what the distance was from the Ship to the Barge. When he said 50 metres, right away you can hear Luka say, No. The other deckhand said, 75 metres and Luka said 100 metres. He was the only one that got it right. There is a big difference btw 50 metres and 100 metres. If he is so experienced, working as a Bosun for 3 years, that kind of mistake should never happen. So, do I think he is still lying? Yeah, I do. Not saying he is lying about his friend dying. How come he never told Captain Sandy about it? And we all know that this was filmed a year ago, that is nothing new. He could have gotten certified since then. If you are in the Yachting industry, there is no such thing as getting a license quickly. You know the protocol of how to do it correctly. There were other Red Flags too. When Captain Sandy asked where did you go to school. He fumbled on his answer and when Captain Sandy said there was no school in Monaco. She caught him lying. He tried to find a quick way to get a license maybe for the show and he got caught.
He lied, he actually admitted this on his insta, when it first aired he said "doing it for the clicks" but then removed it all when his page stated getting attention. He claimed his was a forex trader too - so basically, he's a fully time con-man. Also, looks like he needs a good wash!
@@Cici-w8m Really? Good to know. Even if he did not say that on IG, we all know he was lying. I think he was lying about his friend too. Anything that comes out of his mouth, 99% is probably all BS. And, yes, he does need a good grooming. LOL
@lilg9359 Yup, he sure did. He fumbled on his answers. If someone asked you if you went to class to get your driver's license. You would know the answer to that even if it was years ago without fumbling. Plus, when Captain Sandy asked him and the Deck Crew how far the distance was between the Ship and the Barge. He got it completely wrong. Ruan said 50 metres and right away he could hear Luka say No. The other deckhand said 75 metres and Luka said 100 metres. Big difference between 50 and 100 metres and working as Bosun for 3 years, you would never get that one wrong or better yet working in the yachting industry for 8 years. Big Red Flags. 🟥🟥🟥
There was a crew member hired with zero experience on Captain less boat. He lied about his experience. He finally admitted it when he left his cabin window open and the cabin got flooded in water. He.was always walking around on deck with a bucket on his head.
Captain Sandy is a good Captain. She is caring, compassionate, and when needed, firm, but fair. She has made it clear, over the seasons, that slacking off, cheating and lying won't be tolerated.
@@reneaweigel9506 He was pointing out that he said it was a GUY, a girl and his brother. So the brother would have turned into a sister. I think that's what he means. Who knows. I think he's making up excuses anyway.
This is SOOO dangerous! It's worse than the Russian Chef they hired who couldn't cook; she couldn't even make edible nachos! This guy could have caused some serious liability.. How convenient the timing of his friend's passing. This guy is shady af
@personallyaddickted5616 Don't you think it's strange that he did not know the correct answer when Captain Sandy asked how far the ship was from the Barge? He said 50 metres and Luka said 100 metres which was the correct answer. If you have been a Bosun for 3 years or better yet working in the yachting industry for 8 years. You would know that without any hesitation. That is a huge red flag that he never went to school. He probably did since then. He never said when he sent a video showing the proper copies. Was it months later? Also, when she asked him where did he go to school or did he go to school. He fumbled on his answers.
@@ksmith1728 Agreed!!! There were way too many red flags. Not knowing the difference btw 50 metres and 100 metres is huge. You don't get your license on the boat as Captain Sandy said. You have to go to classes not just be on the boat to get your license. Also, why didn't he ever say his friend's name? Your friend since you were little kids and you don't tell us his name? Never mentioned it once.
Ruan exhibited numerous RED flags. He responded with a "yeah, yeah, yeah" to Sandy's skill question, nodded 'no' while claiming to be "taking things seriously", was overly hostile when he entered the room with sandy and other 2 professionals, mentioned having a 'dry' mouth (typical for liers) He claimed to copied his documents at the "police station" and nodded 'no' when he said he can try to get them sent. He was unfamiliar with protocols, especially when Sandy tested his skills. From that point on, whenever asked about the missing documents, he fumbled and concocted stories. He also lacked transparency about the situation with the yacht crew. It was evident he was a fraud trying to cover it up. Sandy did great getting him off the yacht and testing him
Liars always have defending explanations, where as Truth tellers have confusion assumptions. Ruan kept giving defensive replys, his friend safe, his friends sudden death, his course seller gave him fake doc's...nah mate you should have been confused and acknowledged the importance of having the original doc's.
It's really unprofessional to have the crew arrive within enough time before the charter. Like a day or two ahead of time. Plus they always have one day to get the boat ready for charter and its a hectic race to get things done. Wouldn't you give them more time to prepare so the clients have the best charter possible.
@annebutler2648 Not really, it's not on Captain Sandy. The person that Captain Sandy was texting with to find another Bosun. That is the person (guessing HR) is responsible for doing the checks properly.
I've been nursing for 50 years and in seniour positions. Never, never have I interviewed anyone who only had photocopies of qualification certificates. How did Sandy let this by her?
Maybe whoever he took the yachtmasters from in moneco was the fraudster, he could have thought it was real but he got played by the teacher? Maybe, benefit of the doubt? Devils advocate? Who knows

He also lacked transparency about the situation with the yacht crew. It was evident he was a fraud that still tried to cover it up. Sandy did great getting him off the yacht and testing him
When he said he dropped out at 16, I got a weird feeling. I'm South African and when you're in 16 years old, your probably in Grade 10 ( depends if you've failed a grade or two). But it made me wonder if he passed his Matric (Grade 12, also the minimum qualification for quite alot of courses/college/university) Maybe I'm reading into this too much but 😅 I believe his lying
He learned his craft as a trade instead of going to school for it and is probably really good at it. However this is a multi million dollar yacht, the insurance would never cover someone like that.
It probably flies in South Africa where regulations aren't as strict or you can bribe your way out of things. In a big commercial port in Europe then it's another issue.
I'm from Northern Europe, never even been to South Africa, but I know exactly what you mean. 90 % of white South Africans are the only group of people that I have zero interest in even being in the same room as.
@deborahm6059 Yup. And he never said exactly when he sent a video showing the correct documents. Was it months later? Plus, not getting the distance correct when Captain Sandy asked what the distance was from the Ship to the Barge. Huge Red Flags. If he was a Bosun for 3 years, you do not get that wrong. He said, 50 metres and right away you could hear Luka say no. The other deckhand said, 75 metres and Luka said 100 metres. Huge difference between 50 and 100.

I think it’s strange that they just found out of the 11th hour right before they were about to leave on their first charter that this guy didn’t have the correct documentation. I feel like bravo vets their cast and crew thoroughly and this just seemed odd. Maybe it was for a storyline. Have you seen the statement that he gave? He explained what happened and noel has all of the documentation needed. It’s hard for me to speculate on the 50 m versus 100 m thing as I have nothing to compare it to I have never seen her ask that before, and I’ve never seen any other captain ask that question before. Like I want to see what Jaoa (Jwow?) and Nico and Kelly and all the other bosuns would answer.@@demijour1234
My question is if you’ve been in France for eight years but yet you don’t have your originals with you that seems to put up red flags for me that you’re not actually a skilled as you’re saying you are
